    I was excited too! But they mention it kills the battery as Google doesn’t let the access the system API for it, so we’ll see whether it stays enabled.

      I used their advice from the blog to make an automation that turns it on when I’m home, and off when I’m away.

        I spend 90% of my time at home so that probably won’t help my battery much 😅

            Haha you got me, I do have a charger at home. I’m just not used to charging in the day, I normally charge overnight. But I guess I could charge more if needed.

              To be fair, doubling the amount of charge cycles is not great for your battery. So even with a charger available one should consider whether it’s worth it.
